CASH IS DEAD. LONG LIVE CASH!

It's the electronic age. You can even bump your smartphones together to exchange money. Cash is so last century... right?

You might think that all cash is good for these days is pocket money, and your smartphone or plastic cards will soon swipe cash into oblivion. But think again...

It's true that electronic transactions have changed the way we handle the flow of currency. But has electronic actually replaced cash? When's the last time you wrote a cheque? How would you pay for goods and services if the Eftpos network was having a bad day? How would you transfer funds online if the power lines were down?
